BI am Fionn Ferreira, an Irish teenager. I am very delighted to have won $50 ,000 for my project. My project came about as I was constantly hearing about plastic pollution on the news. And I also see the real effects on our beaches every day. I discovered, to my shock, that at present no filtration( 过滤) for microplastics takes place in any European wastewater treatment centers, so I started looking for a solution. Seeing that there was none, I decided to investigate further, finally finding a way to use the feerofluid(铁磁流体)，a liquid which sticks to the plastic allowing it to be removed using magnets. After over 1 ,000 tests I have proved that my method would remove 87% or higher of microplastics. I grew up in West Cork, Ireland. My hometown is surrounded by untouched nature. This has been my primary inspiration about how nature works. I soon discovered that science really was in everything. The fact that I lived in such a remote place meant that I had to build my own equipment and lab to conduct tests and experiments. Inspired by scientists such as Ben Feringa and his work with organic chemistry and nanotechnology ( 纳 米 技 术 ),I would like to study chemistry or chemical engineering when finishing my last year of secondary school. Both of these subjects will be suited to me as I really enjoy problem-solving and experiments. One of the most valuable rewards from the science fair for me is the opportunity to present my work to a group of professional judges. Winning the prize is a great honour to me as this is an acknowledgement of my project and ideas. Also, winning the prize will give my project more attention. There is nothing I would like to see more than my project to be used in addressing microplastics in our oceans worldwide. 24. What do we know about Fionn? A. He is studying at college.B. He lives by the sea. C. He works for a science fair. D. He was born in America, 25. Why did Fionn set up the project? A. To purify the polluted air. B. To recycle microplastics in cities. C. To collect plastic wastes in water. D. To remove microplastics from water. 26. Which of the following can be used to describe Fionn? A. Competitive. B. Creative. C. Optimistic. D. Humorous. 27. What is Fionn looking forward to? A. Seeing his project applied widely in real life. B. Going to the science fair to get another prize. C. Attracting more attention to his project. D. Getting his project acknowledged by the judges. C The official opening of Bejjing Daxing International Airport caps a long design and building process. Designed by the late architect Zaha Hadid and her Chinese partners, the airport is built for the future, having a terminal the size of 97 soccer grounds - as well as customer-service robots that provide travelers with flight updates and airport information. Called”starfish" by Chinese media for its shape of five concourses( 大 厅 ) connected to a main hall, Daxing aims to reduce walking for passengers. The airport authority has promised a distance of no more than 600 meters 一 about eight minutes of walking 一 between security checkpoints and the remotest boarding gates. This new modern airport employs a special intelligent lighting system, supported by eight big C-shaped columns that let in the sunlight ，brightening the architecture and structure. Therefore it minimizes the need to use electric lighting. To offer a more refreshing travel experience, five outdoor courtyards 一 with the themes ” Silk Garden", ”Tea Garden" ， ” Porcelain( 瓷 ) Carden", ”Countryside Garden" and " Chinese Garden" -- feature at the end of the five departure lounges for use by passengers waiting for their flights. Travelers will be scanned on cameras using facial recognition. Counters will be fully automated to capture face photos and relay them each part of the journey through the airport, including security and the departure gate. China is projected to overtake the United States as the world's biggest air travel market by 2022. The' modest" initial operational target at Daxing is to accommodate 72 million passengers and 2 million tons of goods annually by 2025. The ambitious master plan calls for the building of a total of seven runways, and moving at least 100 million passengers and 4 million tons of goods a year through the airport. 28. Why is the airport in a starfish shaped design? A. To keep security checkpoints effective. B. To hold as many passengers as possible. C. To make boarding gates within easy reach.D. To get the main hall easier to be found. 29. What can the airport's lighting system be described as? A. Energy-saving. B. High-end. C. Passenger-friendly. D. Strangely-formed. 30. What can be inferred about the five outdoor courtyards? A. They use popular techniques. B. They reflect the Chinese tradition. C. They follow the latest world trend. D. They promote Chinese goods to people. 31. What do the numbers in the last paragraph indicate? A. The airport's potential. B. The airport's market. C. The airport's facilities. D. The airport's project. D Our ability to collect data gets far ahead of our ability to fully use it, yet data may hold the key to solving some of the biggest global challenges facing us today. Take, for instance, the frequent outbreaks of waterborne diseases as a consequence of war or natural disasters. The most recent example can be found in a country, where roughly 10,000 new suspected cases of cholera (霍乱) are reported each week--and history is filled with similar stories. What if we could better understand the environmental factors that contributed to the disease,predict which communities are at higher risk. and put in place protective measures to stop the spread? Answers to this question and others like it could potentially help us prevent a catastrophe. As a big data scientist, I study data from wide ranging, public sources to identity pattern, hoping to predict trends that could be a threat to global security. Various data streams are important because the ground truth data ( such as surveys) is often delayed，limited, incorrect or, sometimes, nonexistent. For example ， knowing the incidence( 发 生 率 ) of mosquito-borne disease in communities would help us predict the risk of mosquito-spread disease such as dengue ，the leading cause of illness and death in the tropics. However, mosquito data at a global ( and even national) level is not accessible. To address this gap, we're using other sources such as satellite pictures, climate data and population information to forecast the risk of dengue. Specifically, we had success in predicting the spread of dengue in Brazil at the regional, state and city level using these data streams as well as clinical observation data and online searches that used terms related to the disease. While our predictions aren't perfect, they show promise. Similarly, to forecast the flu season, we have found that online searches can complement( 补充) clinical data.Because the rate of people searching the internet for flu symptoms often increases during their beginning, we can predict a sharp increase in cases where clinical data delays. All of this shows the potential of big data. The information is there;now it's time to use it. 32. What do the examples in paragraphs 2 and 4 show? A. Big data is still hard to get and use. B. People aren't skilled at dealing with big dataC. Big data is not always an imagined method. D. Catastrophes might be prevented with big data. 33. According to the text, survey data A. is a main form of multiple data streams B. is an effective way to collect information C. is sometimes unreliable and unavailable D. is a timely alternative to multiple data streams 34. What does the underlined part”this gap" in paragraph 5 refer to? A. The lack of big data on mosquitos. B. The lack of different data streams. C. The risk of an outbreak of a disease. D. The ignorance of how a disease spreads. 35. What's the best title of the text? A. How do we collect and use data? B. What are the challenges facing us now? C. How can big data help save the world? D. What is the answer to preventing catastrophes? 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分) 根据短文内容， 从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。 选项中 有两项为多余选项。 Flex your memory musclesYou'll remember more if you use your body and your brain, says our memory expert, Jonathan Haneock. Muscle memory is a powerful thing. 36 ,our bodies operate instinctively (本能地)，following long formed, well-practised routines. Today, for example, I decided to go home a different way from my morning run. I spotted the new road I wanted to take, headed towards it... and before 1 knew it, I was back at my front door 一 having gone exactly the same way I always did! T'll try again to take the scenic route next time. But muscle memory is actually a useful tool, and it can have a positive impact on your learning. 37. If you're leaning your part in a play, or preparing to give a speech from memory, repeat the same actions whenever you run through lines. You can even add extra movement instructions to your script(脚本)，to make sure that you do the same things each time. 38. To remember a tough spelling, try writing it out by hand. 39,your muscle memory may well help you. Feel your way to forming the right pattern of letters again. 40, connect it to a physical action that's already hard to change. For example, if you always reach for the coffee jar first thing in the morning, why not use that movement to remind you of something else 一 like the tablet you need to take at the same time every day? A. When you've got a regular "to do" task B. Without our conscious minds having much say C. If you've used this word 一 or one like it- in the past D. You can write again when you've really got something to remember E. Here are some suggestions for using muscle memory to your advantage F. These movements will become effective reminders for the words that go along with them G. My exercises can increase strength in certain parts of my body and improve muscle memory 第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分 45 分) 第一节(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A.B.C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填 人空白处的最佳选项。 Scott Poore is an animal lover.
